Lyrics
Thinking of times I wished I could fly
Thinking of times I wondered how I'd get by
Filling our souls with youth's eternity
From the springs of serenity
I'm still searching for truth...
Remember our lives, remember our tears
Remembering things you never wanted to hear
All things aside, I feel we're losing our time
Things are better now than ever before
Though sometimes I feel like an open door
Just walk right in, then turn around
But I'm not quite sure just how to get back to higher ground
I'm still searching for truth...
Remember our lives, remember our tears
Remembering things you never wanted to hear
All things aside, I feel we're losing our time
I offered apologies
Can't you hear me, I'm on my knees
Oh now I'm pleading... won't you...
Remember our lives, remember our tears
Remembering things you never wanted to hear
All things aside, can't you see we're losing our time?
'Cause we're forgetting the times, forgetting the years
Forgetting everything that ever got us here
Can't you see we're losing our time?
